Towards the end of May.....

Sidmouth_1

Sidmouth looking from the west. 

It's the last week of the Spriing term and Nerys and I are beginning to think that the summer will never get here!  The weather this week has been fantastic so it's been easy to visualise ourselves in sunny Sidmouth and not sunny Gloucestershire!  We've both been busy in work and that, coupled with a back injury has meant that we've not really focused much on the move and the changes that it will bring!!

The house in Wotton is on the market, people are dribbling in - why, oh why does the financial crisis have to happen now! Patience, patience!! We seem to spend our weeks polishing, tidying, clearing up and keeping surfaces clutter free. Thank goodness we are both tidy people, if not this would keep us busy 24/7. The house does look great though and the garden is trying to sell the house for us. If anyone from Cheltenham, Lanarkshire or elsewhere fancies a look at how nice it is, do a search on Rightmove - sensible offers accepted!! Next week brings us a chance to spend some time down in Sidmouth. We plan to take some time checking out the rental market and seeing where might be a nice place to live. Hope the weather keeps up. We decided that renting initially will be the best option and give us time to get to know the area before plunging in to buying a house. Devon is such a lovely county and around Sidmouth we'll be spoilt for choice - Exmouth, Beer, Honiton, Lyme Regis to name a few - and all close to that south coast climate too. Will keep you all updated as we move towards the summer and our exciting departure to a life down south!!
